Why do I put it off so long and then when I do hit a sale like today at hobby lobby, I don’t buy enough albums! I bought 5, and I made a dent in my tower of layouts but there’s still some without a home.
Also, my new shelf is almost completely filled with albums do I think I’m going to have to quit scrapbooking. :laughing hysterically: ok ok, I’ll find a place to put another shelf. Lol

I ran out of room in my shelf too and had to get another shelf. At least we actually use the products we buy! Exactly! I would rather the stuff be in completed albums than my scrap desk. I need to stop buying! |

I'm not sure how it happened, but I have 5 Ikea cubes worth of scrapbooks. It's crazy! But my family loves them almost as much as I do, so it's all worth it  |

I'm storing my grandchildren's albums at my house, so I have a lot of them! I'm going to start putting some of them in DH's office (don't tell him).

I have a 5x5 ikea Kallax in my living room (that can hold 100 12x12 albums if full) and a 2x4 and 2x2 in my scrapbook room (if only holding 12x12 albums, that’s another 48 albums) so I still have plenty of room! I complete two 12x12 albums per year and have various other albums for special subjects. If I ever fill all of these shelves I guess I’ll just buy more lol

I'm terrible about buying albums. I only use the black leather 6x8 Becky Higgins and I just hate to spend the $20 on them- especially when I would need 6-7 a year. It seems like such a waste of money that could be better spent on embellishments or something. Same with the pocket protectors- now that Micheal's doesn't carry them and I can't use the 40% off coupon, I just haven't scrapped much.

I understand. For me it's page protectors. I buy a load of them and think I'm going to finally have a home for a stack of layouts and there are never enough. I need to buy them more often.

I can’t stand buying albums or page protectors. I’d much rather buy supplies so I put it off as long as possible

I'm actually on the hunt for albums! I HATE that 12x12 post-bound albums all have the stupid opening for a pic on the front. I would rather have just plain fronted books.  |

My friend found a sale when WRMK had their faux leather albums for less than three bucks a piece. They also had the albums that sell for $40 in the stores. With shipping, they were still less than $5 a piece. I ordered 23 of them. She has an online store. I know she ordered more than 50. It was just one of those things that shocked the heck out of me.

You can get them on a half off sale at hobby lobby for $10. I’ve ordered online when the store is out. |

I’ve ordered online when the store is out. save on shipping - if the store is out, ask for a raincheck -they'll order you the number you want, call you when they come in (I find it takes about 10 days or so - my store only gets one truck a week), and you get the sale price. I do that with albums all the time. |

Holy cow! What an amazing deal. Did you get all of the same colour? I recently moved all of my albums from my scraproom to our den, and they are so mismatched. I'm thinking of buying a bunch of WRMK albums in the same colour so that everything looks neat and tidy. Is your friend selling the 50 albums she ordered through her online store? |

No, I got two of all of the specialty albums and then the rest in navy and red. I do navy for one boy and red for the other. |
